 Am              G    F
Day into night she's with me,

So safe in her gold and lace.

Verse 2:
 Am              G        F
Mornings I find,   she's left me,
 G  Am            G       F
So cold so alone,   but aware.
    G                 Am
I try to escape, she finds me,
G   Fmaj7        G           F
Oh run though I may, she's there,
                       Am ->
There, there, there, there.

 Am
Luck is a lady
        D      F   G          Am | D F:G
Whose smile is as cold as a stone.
  Am
She'll bring you things,
       D         F     G           Am | D F:G
Many things you might never have known.

      F
But when your die is cast,
G                                 Am
  She'll have the final laugh at you.
        F
She'll lock you in a duel
       G                     Am
Where you come out the fool.

Beware of the Queen of Spades,
      Am           C           D    C   D
Her black widow's curse might find you yet.
   Am        C     F   G   Am      D
Beware of a love that you will regret,
     F         Em7        D
Her love means only your death.

 Am            G        F
Day into night   she's with me,
G  Am               G     F
  Turn of a card, she's there.
     G                        Am
The first time is free, you know,
 G    Fmaj7  G        F
But from now on, pay me,

Me, me, me, me.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. You lose!
